Salicylic acid washes are skincare products designed to exfoliate the skin and treat acne. They typically contain salicylic acid, a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) known for its ability to penetrate deep into pores, effectively removing excess oil and dead skin cells. This helps to prevent acne breakouts and improve overall skin texture. Salicylic acid washes are often used to treat acne-prone and oily skin types, but they can be drying for some individuals, so it’s essential to use them as directed and follow up with moisturizer.
